Valentine’s and February half-term deals
Families still looking for a last minute half term break this February can find great deals from European self-catering accommodation specialist Pierre & Vacances.
As previously predicted, ski sales at Pierre & Vacances properties in the French Alps and Pyrenees have been extremely high for half term week and there is now very limited availability at ski properties during this period.
The company does however currently have good availability at family properties across France and Spain, as well as availability over Valentine’s weekend in city centre locations such as Paris, Bordeaux and Annecy.
Pierre & Vacances, which operates properties in over 40 ski resorts in France, currently only has good availability at one property in the Alps - Hotel du Golf in Les Arcs. A triple room, suitable for a family of three, costs from £1663 for one week from the 13th February 2010. The hotel is located in the centre of Arc 1800 and at the foot of the slopes and boasts a swimming pool, sauna and spa facilities.
